If you're weighing up VELUX sun tunnels for a property in Handforth, here's what's genuinely worth knowing first. Sun tunnels channel daylight from the roof down through a reflective tube into rooms that can't take a conventional window, like internal bathrooms and hallways.
What You Need to Know
Sun tunnels channel daylight from the roof down through a reflective tube into rooms that can't take a conventional window, like internal bathrooms and hallways.
- Hallways and landings
- Staircases
- Bathrooms
- Internal rooms with no external wall
- Walk-in wardrobes
Can a sun tunnel work where a normal roof window can't be fitted?
Yes — that's exactly the situation they're designed for, bringing daylight into rooms with no direct roof access or external wall, like internal bathrooms and hallways.
How much daylight does a sun tunnel actually provide?
A properly specified tunnel makes a genuine difference in a previously dark room — the exact effect depends on the diameter chosen (25cm or 35cm) and the length of run from roof to ceiling.
Do sun tunnels need much maintenance?
Very little — there's no opening mechanism to maintain, just the roof-mounted dome and ceiling diffuser to keep clean occasionally.
